Today, we’re diving deep into one of my all-time favorite topics: sleep. And not just any sleep, but the kind of transformative, restorative rest that powers your body, mind, and soul. Joining me is Jack Dell’Accio, CEO and founder of Essentia, and a certified sleep coach with over 20 years of experience. Jack has dedicated his career to reimagining what it means to get a truly restorative night’s sleep, working with top-tier athletes and wellness leaders to push the boundaries of sleep science. His company, Essentia, is a pioneer in creating organic mattresses that go beyond just being chemical-free—they actually optimize sleep performance and recovery.
In this episode, we tackle the dirty truth about traditional mattresses and the harmful off-gassing chemicals they release into your home. Jack breaks down the hidden dangers of materials in traditional mattresses like polyurethane foam and fire retardants, explaining how these toxic compounds can disrupt your health on a cellular level. We also dig into why many so-called “organic” mattresses might not be as clean or effective as you think, revealing common greenwashing tactics used in the industry.
Jack explains what sets performance mattresses like Essentia apart by addressing thermoregulation, EMFs, pressure redistribution, and other factors that deeply influence your body’s ability to heal and recharge while you sleep. From the unique materials they use—like infused latex and essential oils—to the measurable impacts on REM and deep sleep, this conversation will leave you rethinking what you’re sleeping on and why it matters. If you’ve ever wondered whether your mattress could be sabotaging your health, this episode is a must-listen!
